Streamer accused of fraud, cheating, and harassment sued by Bungie
By Alejandro Díaz de León onThe company filed a lawsuit last week

In a lawsuit filed last week and spotted by The Game Post, Bungie accused Destiny 2 streamer Luca Leone (miffysworld on Twitch) of copyright infringement, harassment, and fraud. “That combination of conduct makes Bungie’s decision to bring this lawsuit easy,” the company said.
the defendant was repeatedly banned from playing Destiny 2 for using cheating software. “Leone has now made thirteen separate accounts in his attempts to evade the ban, and each new account was, therefore, a separate breach of the LSLA” [Limited Software License Agreement] by which Bungie makes Destiny 2 available to players'', the studio said.
“Leone has also repeatedly made threats targeting Bungie and its employees, tweeting about his desire to “burn down” Bungie’s office building and declaring that specific Bungie employees were “not safe” given Leone’s intent to move into their neighborhood,” the lawsuit reads.
Bungie claimed Leone is an active member of a hacking and account trading forum called OGUsers, where the streamer is accused of violating the company’s copyrights by selling Destiny 2 social media profiles, and emblems. The company is seeking an award of damages of $150,000 for each copyrighted work infringed.
They also said it is entitled to statutory damages of up to $2,500 for each time Leone used Destiny 2 cheat software. And the company requested that Leone be "permanently banned from harassing, stalking, or engaging in unwanted or unsolicited contact with Bungie, their employees, or players."
